Hi Vincent,

Thanks for your answer.

Excerpts from Vincent Torri's message of 2010-07-04 18:40:04 +0200:

A library which loads the image and provides me data I can then draw on a
pixmap would be the best way, yes. I think an imlib2 version which works
with xcb would be a pretty good way.

As long as the code is not too long (say, 100-200 SLOC) that would also
be ok.

Best regards,
Michael
